The BabyZen Yoyo2 is the pram bag that parents prefer to use for their children on the go, thanks to its super-lightweight design that's gate-check friendly and its compact fold. It also has a fantastic turn radius and a nearly flat recline.
UPPAbaby G-Luxe
pushchair with car seat a track record of innovatively designed products that are both stylish and feature-packed, the UPPAbaby G-Luxe is a great option for parents who want to travel. The stroller is extremely lightweight and folds down to an extremely compact size for transport. It also has the front wheel lock to keep it in place while being used and a canopy that is fixed to provide adequate protection from the sun. It is easy to maneuver and has a large storage basket.
In contrast to the more expensive models of the UPPAbaby family The G-Luxe is affordable and comes with a variety of additional features, including an adult cup holder and rain cover. It also comes with a convenient one-step brake system and handles that are tall, making it easier for parents of all sizes to push, and an easy-to-use hand-level folding process that makes it easy to store the stroller.
The UPPAbaby G-Luxe features an updated robust frame that resembles the VISTA & CRUZ strollers. It also has a brand new front-end with a single-wheeled design that improves maneuverability, and a larger canopy with an opening sunshade which provides SPF 50+ protection. It also has a convenient storage basket and an easy-to-access back-of-seat storage space.
The G-Luxe was a top performer in our noise tests however, it wasn't the best in its class in terms of performance and durability. It also had the smallest recline positions of our test models and its rear-facing seats aren't recommended for children under two years old.
While the UPPAbaby G-Luxe didn't take home our top umbrella stroller award, it is a close contender and offers many of the features that make our winners so loved by families. It weighs 16 pounds and has a small folded footprint, but it is not as compact as the other models we evaluated. The Summer Infant 3D Lite is 2 pounds lighter than the G-Luxe, and folds to a slightly smaller size which makes it a great option for those looking for a stroller that is light and is easy to move.
BabyZen Yoyo2
The BabyZen Yoyo2 pram delivers on its promises. It's simple to use, lightweight and looks elegant. It's designed to be a part of city life and if you would like to travel system prams with it then it will work well for that too. It's a bit more expensive than some of the other options on this list but it's one of the few that have a rain cover included.
Five Frenchmen founded BabyZen to develop an easy-to-use stroller suitable for urban use. The YOYO2 version is their latest. The YOYO2 has a very unique folding and unfolding system that can be done with one hand. It is also extremely lightweight and compact, and can be carried on your shoulder. It's an excellent choice for infants and comes with an infant bassinet. When your baby is old enough to go, it can be transformed into an infant seat. You can also add a car seat in order to make it a travel system.
In terms of features In terms of features, the YOYO2 has great suspension that can withstand rough terrain with ease and is extremely easy to push around. It comes with a large storage basket and a good-sized zip pocket behind the seat that is convenient for your wallet, phone or snacks. It can be connected to other YOYOs to accommodate larger families, and it's compatible with all Babyzen accessories, such as an earplug and a big shopping bag.
The only drawback to the YOYO2 is that it's not ideal for long walks in the park or on cobblestones. It's a smooth ride but it may not be as robust as something designed with more rough terrain in mind. However, if you only plan on using it for short city walks or to run errands then it should do the job perfectly. The YOYO2 is simple to get in and out of the boot of my Honda Civic and it will easily fit in the footwell as well. It's also smaller than the majority of people's hand luggage making it ideal to fly with a baby.
Summer Infant 3D Lite
The Summer Infant 3D Lite stroller is a light, practical stroller that comes with a variety of features. It can be folded into a compact package so it is easy to carry and store. It's one of the lightest strollers that we test, and is one of the most affordable alternatives. It isn't suitable for daily use because it doesn't have a bassinet or a car seat however it is perfect for travel.
It can hold a toddler easily. The large seat can be positioned almost flat to allow for diaper changes or naps. The 5-point harness can be adjusted in three different height positions. The storage basket is big and has a cup holder on the back for parents to use. The canopy has a peekaboo fabric-covered window and a pocket with a zipper to store smaller items.
Like the UPPAbaby G-Luxe the stroller also steers very well on smooth surfaces, but was stuck in cracks during our testing of rough terrain. Its wheels are made from plastic and they bounce more than the average of our test group. It also has a longer carry strap than the majority of our strollers, so it's more difficult to carry when you're carrying a large bag or a sleeping baby.
The 3Dlite unfolds and folds in just six seconds. The process involves a few steps: raise the lever at the back of the stroller to release the latch, push down the latch on the right side, then push the handles downwards. While they aren't the fastest or most slow fold and unfold times of any stroller they are nevertheless fairly quick. It also has significantly higher handle bars, which can be a problem for smaller people.
The Summer Infant 3D Lite has one major disadvantage: it doesn't have a sunshade. It has a decent canopy, but doesn't offer any protection for your child when you're walking facing the sun. It does have a retractable sun visor that provides some protection when it is fully open but it does not cover your baby's head completely.
Zoe Traveler
The Zoe Traveler is the perfect stroller for those looking for a lightweight, compact stroller. This stroller is not just light, but can also fold down to the size of a carry-on luggage! This is a major plus in our book. It also comes with an umbrella for the sun, a parent console and a variety of extras including an oversized backpack for storage or Travel Pram with a single or cross-body straps, a children's snack tray, and a weather cover.
Zoe was founded as a family-owned business and they pride themselves on creating products that offer parents with the most value as their children develop. This philosophy is evident in their strollers, which includes a range of umbrellas ranging from a basic model to an expandable twin double with reclined seats. The strollers they offer for travel are among the top models available, and offer the most bang for your buck.
We tested the Zoe Traveler to see how it stacks up against the competition in terms of user-friendliness and performance. We examined a variety of criteria such as the fold and unfold, storage, maneuverability and safety. We discovered that this stroller is easy to fold and unfold, but it does take some effort with one hand. It's not as smooth of a ride as some of the competition. It's not a good option for parents with taller heights, as the handlebars are only 40 inches high. This could make it uncomfortable for long journeys.
It is important to have sufficient storage space in your stroller, especially when you are traveling. This is the reason for 25% of the overall score. The Zoe Traveler scored a solid 7 out of 10 in this category. A small bin is located in the back of the vehicle. It can fit diaper bags or coat or jacket. It's not likely to hold an entire day's worth of items.
The seats on the Zoe Traveler are comfortable, however, they're not the best spacious in our test group. The seats have a decent amount of padding and there are two recline settings. The recline is easily adjusted with just one hand, but it takes two to get it back to a straight position.
